I was pretty critical about the tag lines and marketing jargon all over the bag, so I decided to try it and make my own opinion. I want to keep this review simple so here is my list:
+ Low Calorie and Low Sugar
+ Sustained Energy
I did not get my usual afternoon drowsiness when I
substituted Shakeology for lunch!
+ Versatility
The vanilla was GREAT with several low calorie mix-ins! My
favorites were Chocolate PB2 or coffee as well as Pumpkin and Cinnamon. You
can make this a healthy higher calorie option by adding in certain
ingredients like peanut butter, banana, or other fruits!
+ I felt good about what I was drinking. Easy healthy decision to make each day.
+ Helped me create a routine and added structure to my
diet
When I was coming home from work hungry, I had something QUICK
to make right away. So easy, no excuse
+ Shakeology comes with an empty bag guarantee, so no
apprehension necessary

- Strange Digestion at First
While I didn’t experience this personally, I have heard
from people who did. As far as I know
it only lasted the first few days, and was most likely due to the increase in
probiotics in the intestines
- One flavor for 30 days
While the Vanilla was very versatile with mix-in
possibilities, I am unsure if the Chocolate, or Tropical Strawberry would be
the same (I haven’t tried them yet!) To receive a “variety pack” you
must order the individual packets which are only 24 servings (rather than
30). But, Shakeology did just release
a sampler with 4 individual packets to try before you buy a month supply.
- Cost
Shakeology is definitely an investment at about $4 a shake
+/- On the Go
Shakeology is an EXCELLENT healthy on the go option, but I
definitely preferred the consistency from my blender over that from my shaker
cup.
